Hmm.

At least he'll be able to concentrate on 2010 now. Sammy get your body physically ready and explode on to the scene next year.

    now the question is, who do we bring from the rookie list?

    Good question! Maybe we leave Spencer in when Jamar is due back in a few?? Maybe Valents gets one last chance for a crack. Sounds like he has been going well of late in the magoos!

    Our injury curse continues. I doubt he would have played much footy this year but gee what a setback!

    Very sad news. The kid is a gun! As you said, our injury curse continues. Can we blame BOHDAN for this one?

    If jamar is due back then we dont need spencer, with meeson doing well, jamar to come back in and PJ will do better at VFL than spencer...

    With blease not in the main side i would prefer trying one of the untried rookies. Out of hughes and healey i think... healey looks ok but is only playing in the twos... hughes is still coming back from injury but is playing well at casey..

    if this is true,

    SAM BLEASE YOU ARE NOW A PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL PLAYER, YOU CANNOT PLAY SCHOOL YARD JACK IN THE PACK. DO YOU EVER SEE NBA PLAYERS PLAYING STREET BALL WITH THERE FELLOW HOOD MEN?

    if this is not true then.

    CARRY ON.

    I dare say the kid will be feeling fairly average not only due to the injury but also for letting down of all MFC stakeholders....supporters included. Propably not appropiate to compund the situation with comments like the above (no pun intended).

    Valenti has to be the man he's done nothing wrong and is still getting plenty of the ball, McKenzie could be the smokey. Hughes and Healey have just come back from injury.

    Watts couldn't possibly play school football after this. Going down in a VFL game is understandable but getting injured at school looks completely stupid.

    Can we track the kid who tackled him and slap the [censored] out of it*?! :rolleyes: :D

    Terrible news for Blease, and generally for the club. Probably the best thing about football (except premierships... but I wouldn't know!) is watching young players develop. This has now obviously set him back significantly.

    Still, he is 17, and when he retires in 15 years having won 3 premierships, a Brownlow and 2 B&Fs with Melbourne, none of us will remember the school-yard accident that ruined his first year in the game!

    And if this has taught us anything, is that Jack Watts should be spending his lunchtimes in the library, covered in bubble wrap, with a 5m clear zone around him. Kids who dare to approach get slapped*.

    *To violence against kids, Demonland says No (but Jaded says maybe... ;))!

    Crud! Can we just get one season O footy gods. :angry:

    can we please spare a thought for the kid that tackled him? he would probably feel sick in the stomach right now and will do for a very long time. he has also hamperred the chances of the school footy team as well...he would probably feel just as bad as bleasey, if not worse.

  • Quote

    Apparently the kid who tackled him was a Rangers team mate.

    This is bad news. I was dreading one of our young players getting an injuys like this.

    As for people saying we should stop Watts from playing school footy now. Thats just stupid, you cant wrap the kid up in cotton wool for the next few years, the injury could have easily happened in a training session. Remeber when Spider Everitt sprained his ankle when he was walking in his backyard?

    THis gives me the runs! For goodness sake, can we just get a clean run of luck of a while. Just 12 months would be good.

  • Quote

    Injuries happen.....

    Yes, it is frustrating....

    Not many positives can come out of an injury to a young kid like this, but one thing is for sure..... He will be hungry as hell to get back into football once he has recovered....

    And it also means he is forced to concentrate his gym work on his upper body for a while....

    :P Just trying to find a silver lining...

  • Quote

    One posative out of it is Sam will get to concerntrate on his studies.....which is what this year was all about anyway.

    Good luck with a full & speedy recovery sammy

    Seems strange in this day in age of professional football, that listed players still attend school.

    Bad luck to the kid. Hope this doesn't erode his pace, as someone mentioned that was the main reason he was drafted.

  • Quote

    Lets just hope Sam has a healthy recovery and is ready and prime to go for a full pre-season which he will be able to do given his schooling will be completed. Fingers crossed will be cherry ripe come November.

    Sad unfortunate, but put it in a cast and get into the weight room.

    Exactly what I was thinking.

    he is lightning quick, but built like a bean pole. he told me he's put on some muscle, but he needs much more.

    having said that, he has great evasive skills.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
